No thanks!!!!!
Too many hands - too short time = too bad offer!
I stick to Crypto: it must be 5-10 times easier - and BET365
for only 500 hands. F... offffff multipoker

You'd be better off working in a sweatshop in Sri Lanka.

[/ QUOTE ]Yes you can stack them.

I just finished all these bonuses from last month at 8:57 last night. This is the first time I'm actually unhappy to see a bonus come out. Here we go again I guess.

Yea, boo, I was ready for vacation. Oh well, I just got these done on Monday, guess I will start again. This is a no-brainer for me with rb on MP as well.

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
Dumb questions:

1) can you cash out at all and cash back in during this period

2) Which is better.... 27% RB + Multipoker bonuses or 30% RB and no bonuses? Can anyone do the math on that? I'm dumb.

EvanJC 10-01-2005 12:23 PM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
i think rakeback + bonus is better, but someone smarter would know for sure.

timprov 10-01-2005 12:35 PM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
Algebra, baby:

(M - 1500) * 27% + 1500 = M * 30%, where M is the breakeven point for MGR. So .27M + 1095 = .30M, or .03M = 1095, or M = $36,500. So if you're generating more MGR than that, choose 30% rakeback.

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
I cashed in and out multiple times with no problems.

Their bonuses are 20x, which means they are almost sure to earn money. Hence they may not be as restrictive as others, that fear the bonushunters.

[/ QUOTE ]

You can play any limit.
In NL a $1 pot is counted as raked, so starting from 50NL upwards, every flop is a raked hand.
Compared to Prima/Absolute/Paradise 10x Boni this isnt too bad (since there you need a $5 pot/25c rake).
As I said: this is for NL. I have no idea how this compares on Limit tables as I don't play Limit.

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
I decided WTF, I'm gonna play anyway and $500 is $500. So I deposited and entered the bonus code but it does not show up in my pending account. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes, I did alreadyy email support but you know how that goes. They'll get around to it sometime in the next week.

Thanks! I might not be able to clear all of them, but I'll try to do 3 or 4.

No.

I also have a tiny problem. My bonus for last month should have expired for the last two bonuses($200/$100) that I had about 36 hours ago but they are still listed as pending so I wrote to Multi to try to get them expired so I can start clearing this months bonuses.

Wow, I should try getting an account there. I love playing at Party!

Wabby 10-01-2005 05:38 PM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
I just cleared my last bonus about 30 hours after it expired. It seems they are generous on that part. If you are reasonable close, try to clear it.

However I see your problem, if you still have a 10.000 hand raked bonus there and they remove it tomorrow.

I guess you will just have to wait a day or two.

twolf 10-01-2005 06:12 PM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
they emailed back within 1/2 hour and agreed to call it expired and just forward to the Oct. bonus.

After I cleared the last bonus I started playing the $50 PLO on Stars and UB as Party rarely has one full $50 going at all. So I had 10 hands of 4k cleared [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]. Aren't they kind people.

I figured this bonus to be a bit over $5 an hour. But I could be wrong as I don't remember how I got this number. It depends on if you play SH or full ring because of how many hands you get an hour as well.

4-tabling 3/6 SH is worth about $14 per hour in RB, if you're getting 25%. Playing off a 20x bonus at 4 tables of 3/6 SH pays about $9 per hr.

I guess these bonuses might be worthwhile for microlimit bonus whores, but that's about it.

At 3-6 SH I can get 320 raked hands per hour easy.Your math is wrong. 15 An hour easy.

At 5/10 SH, doing a bonus of $100:

30% RB: $203
27% RB: $257


The bonus and lower RB is better.

You're wrong. You get dealt about 320 to 350 hands per hour on four tables of 3/6 SH. Only about half of those hands get raked. Playing a 20x bonus at four tables of 3/6 SH will pay you about $8 per hour.

20x is a bit harsh, but I'll go for it, maybe not a full $500 in case something better comes along.

You can clear all 5 bonuses or start at the $100 bonus. You don't have to do the most expensive and time consuming one.

Cry Me A River 10-02-2005 10:19 AM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
This is an AWESOME bonus if you are a small buy-in player. If you play something like $25NL or even $50NL this bonus clears faster than Absolute, Crypto (Interpoker), Stars, etc.

Unlike these other sites, any raked pot counts not just when the rake hits $.25 or $1. Minimum pots that count at Multi are $1 and these are common even at $25NL, however $5 and especially $20 pots are far less so.

I cleared $300 in these bonuses in Sept, almost entirely at $25NL full table - 7,162 hands total (119 at $50NL, 641 at $25NL 6-handed, 397 at $25PL and 6,005 at $25NL). I was 5.6 BB/100 Hands ($214.22 in profit) and paid $172.15 in rake.

So my bonus was $127.85 MORE than the rake I paid and the amount of bonus I collected exceeded my winnings!

Now granted for medium and high limit players, $300 for 7000 hands probably seems like peanuts and I figured the hourly bonus to be worth about $5/hr 4-tabling $25NL. Again, insignificant for the big boys, but that more than DOUBLES my hourly rate. And keep in mind, for someone with a bankroll in the $500-$1000 range $300 is a significant sum!!!

20X is misleading since Multi's definition of a raked hand is far more liberal than most other sites. On Multi, a $1 pot counts as a raked pot. On other sites it takes a much larger pot (usually $5 but as high as $20) to count.

This makes a huge, huge difference at lower buy-ins!!

nice post, I was going to say the same thing. It'll take about 45hrs/week 4-tabling full ring to clear the entire bonus on 25NL, but if you do nothing but break even, you can take in ~$10/hr CAD, which is about $450 CAD a week, tax free. Seeing how 25NL is also a joke, you can also prob. triple your hourly bonus rate winning there.

I wouldn't recommend doing something like this for everybody because of the time involved, but doing this can be a lot more lucrative then a lot of jobs out there. Plus, combine this with the Party and Empire bonuses and its a decent monthly earning.

As coincindes go... I was laid off on Friday from a job paying $11/hr CDN, that's $1760 CDN a month gross, before taxes.

The bonus portion of the Multi promotion ($1500US) is worth 1,743.08 CDN.

Almost exatly the same as my old job. So I'm seriously, seriously considering dragging my ass on finding s new job and spending the month clearing the bonus instead. Even if I just play break-even, I make the same salary as working the day job and hopefully I can at least maintain my mediocre 5BB/100 rate (Hey, cut me some slack, I've been an SNG player to this point, only switched over for the bonus) which would translate into about an extra $1000US.

Intriguing...

titans01 10-02-2005 07:27 PM

Re: October bonuses on Multi...
 
For those of you that have RB, what limit are you playing to clear these? I signed up for Multi a few months ago and did the signup bonus and the IGM bonus. Last month I did a $100 & $200 bonus. I play .5/1 limit and only play enough hands to clear the bonuses. My MGR is always in the negative and I've yet to recieve a RB.

SinCityGuy 10-02-2005 07:33 PM

Question for you guys
 
If a person is already getting RB on Multipoker, are these bonuses deducted from your MGR? If so, then they're definitely not worth it to me. However, if I still got my full RB plus the bonus, then it would obviously be worthwhile.
